All That Art

Like most kids, Duncan loves to draw, paint, and sculpt. Hardly a day passes when he doesn't bring home art from school or his babysitters'. He's also got a craft table in the basement of our house. Sometimes he just likes to sketch at the kitchen table or on his lap. But what to do with all that art? Last night we strung a piece of garden twine across the wall of Duncan's bedroom and let him choose some pictures we could peg to it.

The picture on the left is a sailboat and the blue, red, and yellow painting is "the world."

A family portrait. I love the huge shoes we're all wearing. We do stomp around in Blundstones.

Hairy tree.

At the top of his bed, some things he loves, including his classroom picture.

For "Hundreds Day," Duncan coloured in 100 boats in a harbour.

Here's a tree we drew together. Duncan put birds and a big butterfly on it.

Duncan wanted his own blog, so he designed one with my help. Maybe I'll ask him if he wants to upload some of these pictures to it and I can type up what he wants to say about them.
